About this file
This is a Connecticut State Agency Tax Exemption Certificate issued by the Department of Revenue Services (DRS) to the State of Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP). The certificate, designated OR-295 and effective January 21, 2025, authorizes DEEP to make tax-exempt purchases of tangible personal property and services within Connecticut. The exemption applies broadly to procurement activities except for meals and lodging, which require advance DRS approval. The certificate is non-transferable and non-assignable, and entities must use their assigned Tax Exemption Number (DEP43000 for DEEP, issued as 06-6000798) when completing the CERT134 form for exempt purchases.
The certificate is issued pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes Section 12-412(1)(A) and serves as evidence of tax-exempt status when conducting purchases. Only Connecticut state agencies and certain municipalities are eligible for such exemptions; the federal government agencies are excluded. Tax Exemption Numbers are valid for verifying the agency's exempt status with vendors and suppliers. For policy inquiries or additional information regarding the exemption, entities may contact DRS at 860-297-5962 or drs@ct.gov, or access Policy Statement 2010(7) on the DRS website at portal.ct.gov/DRS.

Dear Colleague, I am pleased to provide your agency or municipality with a Connecticut State Agency Tax Exemption Number.
This certificate issued by the Department of Revenue Services (DRS) will serve as evidence that your agency or municipality is exempt from Connecticut sales and use taxes on the purchase or lease of tangible personal property and services, except for meals and lodging. Qualifying state agencies or municipalities still must get advance DRS approval for sales and use tax exemptions for meals and lodging.
Tax Exemption Numbers are issued only to Connecticut state agencies or certain municipalities. DRS does not assign tax exempt numbers to agencies of the United States government. (See Policy Statement 2010(7), Tax Exempt Purchases by Connecticut State Agencies and Municipalities.)
DRS issues Tax Exemption Numbers to state government agencies or certain municipalities to verify the agency or municipality’s tax-exempt status when making purchases. Use your Tax Exemption Number when completing CERT‑134, Exempt Purchases by Qualifying Governmental Agencies.
For information on the Tax Exemption Number policy, see PS 2010(7), on the DRS website at portal.ct.gov/DRS or call DRS at 860‑297‑5962. As always, I welcome your comments and suggestions. Feel free to email DRS at drs@ct.gov Sincerely, Mark D. Boughton, Commissioner OR-295 (Rev. 02/21)
